  1. That makes a lot of sense. Makes it easier for builders and GMLs. Folk can just scale the biceps as they would currently then.
  2. Is there a file available for that remodelled neck , im seriously considering making a replacement as one of my prongs snapped in transit. ive wrapped in in cloth and glued and was hoping to claim as weathering etc but putting it on is a PITA and a TPU one that has better prongs is very much a better want for me now.
  3. That is weird but as with most things if it cant be seen then it doesn't exist so do we allow gaps or accept that some folk might need to use cord / elastic to keep it shut and just state it MUST be hidden etc
  4. I had some before I had to sell it on , a me issue NOT the armour. it ticked all the boxes as far as what I checked against on the crl. the back innert boxes are separate so are made as resin boxes so if theres any issue you can get the right ones and drop them in.
  5. Started to paint shoulder bell. Scuffed and tack clothed why’s it goin on funny notices i Let it dry then brought it inside. Sees humidity of 77% That’ll do it Bugger
  6. need to sort out paints etc for the very slimey shoulder straps... Pretty sure I can remember what @Dropkick said I needed lol
  7. Shoulder strap cut outs made and cut and "j" hooks made in the biceps.
  8. Bit of progress Rear of back armour the box greeblies were a bit soft so printed very very thin ones and iterated till got right size and thickness. Collar prongs weren’t the best so drilled out receptacle in chest and sanded them with dremel wheel so now fit really well. Will see if need to do anything at first proper fit when have soft goods. Opened up slots for the shoulder straps so now waiting for the MPSB straps and we can take a look at that. Buckles had the slot pre cut so that is one less job. Have pics and will upload later Still need to square the two holes
  9. The back box greeblies were a bit blobby so sized and printed some very thin covers of the parts to sharpen it up but still stay within the box
  10. Daft little update. Biceps glued together , still gonna add a slit and have it flex at the back and then use either rubber cord or elastic. Gave everything a soft wipe with a scotch pad ( the red ones ) to add a better key and weather depending it’s primer time. Can add the colour to all the bits and stilll then mod the shoulder bridges and sides when I need to Have ordered some shoulder straps from Paul prentice and have the bell brackets and elastic strap already. have the webbing and snaps ready to go and more industrial Velcro than I know what to do with. Tempted to use the Velcro hook the bells up rather than a snap to make it easier to dress and connect the bell to the bicep in the usual way.
  11. Hhahaa. All good man Wrapped a tiny bit of t shirt round it and drowned it in superglue. I could sand it off but its now going to be weathering lol
